2nd half of the Self-Covers are up. It's mainly a nostalgia filled wonderland.

Takahashi wins! But it's only going to get harder from here on out. This is the last poll before the tie breaker rounds.

I honestly have been noticing it now for awhile. Juice=Juice, Angerme and Tsubaki Factory have all sort of lost their image? They are now just getting stuff thrown at them but it's not really coming across as a H!P sound, more just a generic, let's see what will sell, sound. Morning Musume can get a...

Whoever made this. I love you. There are some MVs in here I’ve never seen and it seems to be in chronological order too.

There are a few MVs missing but overall an impressive list.

Takahashi vs Tanaka vs Ishiguro

1 vote. Go!

Remixes are over with, now on to stuff that's more memorable. (Maybe)

It's the Self-Cover Section, Part 1

I imagine when Inoue Rei finally graduates she’s going to go out with a bang and give a nod to Kobushi. Well, I hope she does anyway. She seems the sentimental type considering she liked to perform songs from her TNX days.

A lot of them are. A lot of the early ones are from released singles, but they also stuck them in that early morning best of box too. And others were sprinkled around which is why I kept finding them in strange places.

I don’t blame you. UF sanctioned remixes weren’t my favorite thing so I just sort of never saved them or hid them in the bottom of my playlist never to see the light of day.

:tears: :down: :sad2: I'm sorry. In my attempt to finish this post (with where you can find the songs in this phase) I discovered a few more missing remixes, which I'm sure no one knew existed but still, they needed to be added. I added them into the poll, and in doing so, I reset the poll. :ph34r:

We're nearing the end of this chaos.

It's Miki vs Sakura vs Reina

1 vote.

We're starting the next phase this week. I call this the hail mary phase because there's a lot of songs in this list I'm sure some of you may have never knew existed, but this is a full Morning Musume song battle so no matter how rare. Good, bad or ugly. If it got released officially, it's got to co...

They technically did have a mini platinum era, thanks to Covid. XD

We are going to lose more members then gain them. So technically this is the second coming of the Bail Out era after 6th gen joined.

Just in time for the spring tour. Im curious on how they plan to drop the next single? Which I assume will be Mizuki’s last. But they could sneak in two if they wanted too. One now (spring/summer) and one later (fall/winter). I’d ideally like next gen introduced on a single that wasn’t Mizuki’s grad...

Holo live is having a semi-big showing at Anime Boston this year.
https://www.animeboston.com/news/article/889

It’s easier to port in v-idols than actual idols.

It’s not my thing, but I’m sure some people will be excited about it.

So somewhere along the way, meaning today. I realized I screwed up BIG time. I forgot to add Aya in with Reina and Eri. My brain THOUGHT I did, but it obviously blanked. So to be fair to Aya, I'm giving her a shot so I reorganized the final voting. Which you can find in the first post. So this is th...

Last Album Up for Voting!

I put a preview up of the future voting for covers and remixes to give you a heads up on future voting if you're so inclined to listen to any of the remixes or covers.

Overall this is a pretty good single. I need to give it a solid listen though. I've only hit bits and pieces.

Tell me this BBS is 6th Gen Bias without actually telling me. :hahaha: :hahaha: :hahaha: I had another plan in mind, but apparently I need to go breaking a 6th Gen block at the end of this. (You have been warned.) Anyway. It's Oda for Ishiguro. One of these girls is getting a pity vote. But which on...

15th Album is Up. We're almost at the finish line for albums. Next up will be the covers and remixes. It should be a quick one. (Hopefully) Where as the last album was forgettable to me. This one is full of such great songs I personally like. :lol: Hard round for me at least. Might be easier for oth...

Mai seems perfectly content being a side member. Doing concerts, plays etc. Some girls don’t crave the spotlight. They are happy to just be in it once in awhile.

I figured that when she didn’t join a group like the other CG members.

Thanks. I guess I'll have to look up each individual group. For the Summer and Fall H!P did the Hello! Project 2022 Summer CITY CIRCUIT and Hello! Project 2022 Autumn CITY CIRCUIT Will CD Japan ever release these on disc? I'm not sure what you're asking? It's all solo group concerts, all the summer...

I wont be bitter. NOPE.

Anyway. Eri vs Reina.

Good Luck with that.

14th Album is Up.

I.... don't remember this album at all. I'm sure I'll remember it after I listen to it.

Maybe.....

Madara. H!P Has a handy section that collects all the releases for the year. 2022 2023 I also did the fast break for 2022 which I list all the releases for 2022. Check it out. It's basically a rehash of all the stuff from the wiki, but without the annoying adds. Anyway, to answer your question. For ...

⑬ Colorful Character album is up for voting.

Personal opinion, but Colorful Era went so hard on the singles that the albums suffered.

But this was also the time when they started to beef up the singles too so the albums were getting a lot of scraps. Weird times.

Niigaki vs Oda

Let's GO!

Kamei Eri vs Takahashi Ai


Good luck with that....

12th Album is up. Welcome to the back end of Platinum Era and the Birth of the Colorful Era!

I'll let you in on a little secret.

I forgot to buy this album.

It's the only one I don't own.

I swear I'll buy it one of these days.

We're at the end of the Platinum era. It's only down hill from here folks.

Goood Luck! Once again, 3 votes each.

(And whoever didn't vote for Loving You Forever needs a relisten.)
